Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Inspired by Gérard Genette's Paratexts: Thresholds of interpretation . Trans. Jane E. Lewin.Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1997 and because I served 2 terms on the American Library Association Notable Books CommitteeIthought that a subset of the notables might be interesting toanalyze for acknowledgements to libraries. I organized the sample by mid-decade. Notable Books site: http://www.ala.org/rusa/awards/notablebooks Assistance for the project provided by various Graduate Assistants at the University of South Florida, School of Information during 2006-2007.
